Accounting 311 Joint Costs IN-CLASS EXERCISE /Quiz (2 pages)

The following data apply to questions 1 – 5.

Brant Corporation manufactures two products out of a joint process—Scout and Andro. The joint costs incurred are $400,000 for a standard production run that generates 70,000 pounds of Scout and 30,000 pounds of Andro. Scout sells for $9.00 per pound and Andro sells for $7.00 per pound.

1. [CMA Adapted] If there are no additional processing costs incurred after the splitoff point, the amount of joint cost of each production run allocated to Scout on a physical-quantity basis is

a. $100,000. b. $120,000. c. $280,000. d. $300,000.

2. [CMA Adapted] If there are no additional processing costs incurred after the splitoff point, the amount of joint cost of each production run allocated to Andro on a sales-value-at-splitoff basis is

a. $100,000. b. $175,000. c. $225,000. d. $300,000.

3. [CMA Adapted] If additional processing costs beyond the splitoff point are $1.00 per pound for Scout and $2.3333 per pound for Andro, the amount of joint cost of each production run allocated to Andro on a physical-quantity basis is

a. $100,000. b. $120,000. c. $280,000. d. $300,000.

4. [CMA Adapted] If additional processing costs beyond the splitoff point are $1.00 per pound for Scout and $2.3333 per pound for Andro, the amount of joint cost of each production run allocated to Andro on an estimated-net-realizable-value basis is

a. $320,000. b. $175,000. c. $147,350. d. $80,000.

5. Assume the same information as in question 4. The amount of joint cost of each production run allocated to Scout using the constant gross-margin percentage NRV method is

a. $224,910. b. $260,120. c. $335,090. d. $405,090.

6. [CPA Adapted] For purposes of allocating joint costs to joint products, the sales value at splitoff method could be used in which of the following situations?

No costs beyond splitoff Cost beyond splitoff

a. No No

b. Yes No

c. No Yes

d. Yes Yes

7. Products G and H are joint products developed from the same process with each being processed further. Joint costs are incurred until splitoff, the separable costs are incurred in further refining each product. Sales value at splitoff method is used to allocate joint costs. If the sales value of G at splitoff increases and all other costs and selling prices remain unchanged, the gross margin of

G H

a. increases increases

b. decreases increases

c. decreases decreases

d. increases decreases

8. [CPA Adapted] Tanner Company manufactures products Katran and Blare from a joint process. Product Katran has been allocated $7,500 of total joint costs of $30,000 for the 1,500 units produced. Katran can be sold at the splitoff point for $4 per unit, or it can be processed further with additional costs of $2,000 and sold for $7 per unit. If Katran is processed further and sold, the result would be

a. an overall loss of $1,500.

b. a gain of $1,000 from further processing.

c. a gain of $2,500 from further processing.

d. a break-even situation.

9. [CPA Adapted] In accounting for byproducts, the value of the byproduct may be recognized at the time of:

Production Sale

a. Yes No

b. No No

c. No Yes

d. Yes Yes

10. [CPA Adapted] Mohler Corporation manufactures a product that yields the byproduct JEP. The only costs associated with JEP are selling costs of $0.10 for each unit sold. Mohler accounts for sales of JEP by deducting JEP’s separable costs from JEP’s sales and then deducting this net amount from the major product’s cost of goods sold. JEP’s sales were 200,000 units at $1.00 each. If Mohler changes its method of accounting for JEP’s sales to showing the net amount of additional sales revenue, then Mohler’s gross margin would

a. be unaffected.

b. increase by $180,000.

c. increase by $200,000.

d. increase by $220,000.
